    Medium Thai tea. $7
    Jill A.

    Stopped in around 5:30 and was the only person sitting outside. It took quite some time to be served with water and a menu. Seems they're a bit short-staffed and weren't prepared to be busy at that hour. The food was quite good. However, for $30 for a Thai iced tea and one small chicken dish I would have expected a bit more food. The staff is very friendly and both the inside and outside are cozy. I'm just not that keen on spending that much money for a tiny dish.

    10/10 and will definitely be back! We decided to try a new (to us) thai food spot in Temecula and wow, it did not disappoint! Hidden in the target shopping center on rancho cal, next to the old UFC gym! We walked in, place is clean and tidy, staff is warm and welcoming. The vibe is cute, I love the fresh rose on each table. The menu is big, lots of tasty options to choose from! The thai tea with Boba is the best I've had! We went with the drunken noodles add chicken and the pad see ew added beef. Spice level 3 was perfect, however, id definitely do level 4 next time PLUS they bring 4 different spicy sauces to add to your plate. The food was next level - HOT, delicious and so so so savory and good! We are already wanting to go back & even more excited that we have leftovers tomorrow! Ps, the portions are enough to share! Great thai food in Temecula

    FIRST TIME here and it will definitely NOT be the last! First of all they open at 10am on Sunday :) so glad we don't have to starve until 11am for most other places to open and they have a very nice outdoor seating that is spacious and dog friendly... SONG of the DAY to play along to the YELP REVIEW: CUPID by fiftyfifty... BOAT NOODLES: 9/10 Big portions and flavorful noodles and broth. It did come a little sweet but, I was able to enhance or fix it by adding some vinegar, fish sauce and chili... THAI/LAO SAUSAGE:10/10 had the perfect flavor and the complete side condiments that consisted of GINGER, CABBAGE, RED ONIONS, THAI CHILI & PEANUTS. This dish is usually consumed with BEER... KRAPOW: 9/10 The flavor was all there! The only point taken off is for the absence of smokiness from the heat of the wok while stir frying... CURRY PUFFS or EMPANADAS: 10/10 Very freshly made and also very rare to find in this part of town... They use garden FRESH BASIL, kafir leaves and banana leaves that are grown right in front of the store!! SERVICE: A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Everyone was so nice, friendly and welcoming. PARKING: PLENTY and there's no need to fight for it at any time of day! ROCK ON THAI KITCHEN!!!!!

    TEMECULA's THAI JEWEL! Thai Kitchen is a hidden treasure in the heart of Temecula. The restaurant is reliable when my family and I need a place to eat asap and it's a go-to for a reason. The ingredients are fresh and each item on the menu is authentic. I've tried Thai food up in the Bay Area that doesn't even compare to Thai Kitchen. What should you try? If you're a Thai enthusiast or beginner I say the best dish you can try to test the temperature of place like this is the Pad See Ew. It's fried noodles with tofu, veggies, and a special sauce. I LOVE it, it's my favorite dish and they give you a hearty portion. The service at Thai Kitchen is great, the servers are a little shy, but well-mannered and pretty attentive. The ambiance is incredibly calming and soothing, they have gentle music playing in the background at all times. It's generally very quiet inside. If you need a little more noise, there's an outdoor patio with tables.

    Thai Kitchen has been my go to for Thai Food ever since I moved to Menifee in 2019. Love their cashew chicken, crispy pork belly and their mango sticky rice!!! Vina always provides friendly and excellent service

    Thai Kitchen is a longstanding hidden gem in town, and one of the best Thai restaurants around. It's tucked away in a corner of the Target shopping center, in a mini jungle they've created around the entrance. Just look for all the plants. The interior has nice ambiance, mostly booths and not too large, not too small. It's family owned and the employees are friendly. The food is yummy, some of my faves are the pad see ew and the fresh spring rolls. The spring rolls are the uncooked kind, larger with rice wrappers and full of fresh veggies and good stuff. I often get two for a perfect lunch portion. The peanut sauce is amazing. Thai Kitchen is one of my standbys. I highly recommend it.

    Lipstick stains and food particles on glass
    Joey M.

    Subpar Food Quality: The food was generally dry and bland. * Incorrect Spice Level: A "medium" spice level was equivalent to a very high level ("like a 10") at other Thai restaurants. * Missing/Poor Quality Garnish: The food advertised as coming with lime had old, dried-out lemon wedges instead. * Major Hygiene Issues: Cups were dirty and had visible lipstick stains and floating particles. * Poor Service: The server failed to return with fresh water after you pointed out the hygiene issues with the glass.

    Absolutely loved this mango shrimp salad! The mangoes and shrimp were fresh, sweet and perfectly balanced with the savory and tango flavors. Every bite was refreshing, crisp and delicious. Great portion price and beautifully presented. Definitely something that I will order again.

    I've always driven past this place but never went inside; I'm glad I changed that. The workers are so nice and the decorations make the restaurant feel cozy and warm. The food was fresh and very delicious. I ordered the veggie plate with the Jamaica hibiscus tea. The tea was simply divine and I couldn't get enough of it. I will definitely be coming back

    Anytime I'm in the area, I will stop by to dine here! They have a good amount of tables. There's both indoor and outdoor seating. The workers are always so attentive and sweet. My favorite is their Tom yum noodle soup. It is so flavorful! I don't eat seafood and most Thai spots have seafood in this soup, this spot has chicken and tofu. Their pad Thai and curry is also delicious. Hands down my favorite Thai food spot!

    Tom Kha Soup ~ enough for at least 2 bowls each. Yum.
    Jeff N.

    Dined here the Day after Christmas since we were craving Tom Kha Soup big time. Their menu had lots to offer with Lunch Specials Their Food was Delicious! For starters we had the Tom Kha Soup with a Ladle and bowls for each of us to enjoy. Tasted so delicious and there was even enough to take home. She ordered a Pineapple Curry with White Rice I had the Shrimp Pad Thai with some Thai Tea on ice. Their Spice Scale went from 1 - 5, 5 being the Spiciest I had a Spice Level 3 ~ Just Right. Service was great - Ambiance was nice being outside. Definitely returning to enjoy more Tom Kha Soup & Pad Thai.

    Brown Rice - 7/10
    Maureen J.

    Total for dinner for 3 was: $90.22 without tip. We ordered the following: - Large Thai Tea - Small Mango Tea - Drunken Noodles with Chicken - Papaya Salad - Green Curry with Tofu and (1) brown rice - Garlic Tilapia with (2) sticky rice The meal was good, but the spice level wasn't spicy enough for us. The dishes were still pretty good. Servers were friendly. We got seated right away. We waited a lot, but there was a good amount of people eating in. Booths were kind of tight.

    Thai beers
    Ashley L.

    This is my second time coming here and I was not disappointed! Service was great and food came out quickly! All of the dishes packed a punch full of flavor! You get to choose your spice level 1-5, we got a 3 but could have done a 4. (Good if you like spicy!) this restaurant is definitely a home style place and everything is fresh. We will make this our go to spot for Thai food in the area. Highly recommend

I opted for level 1 spicy, which wasn't spicy at all, but they had some great side condiments that were perfect to add in. My partner ordered the pad see ew, which was also excellent, with really good wok hei. Overall, definitely worth a visit if you're in town and craving authentic Thai flavors! Great service and beautiful Ambiance.

The broth in the Tom Yum soup was incredibly flavorful with the perfect balance of savory, tangy, and spicy flavors. If I ordered it again, I would probably choose shrimp instead of chicken because I think the shrimp would complement the broth even better and bring out the flavors more. That said, the chicken was still tasty, and we both really enjoyed it. The shrimp spring rolls were also amazing, but the real star for me was the peanut sauce. It was so good that I had to order an extra side because I kept adding more and more to every bite. The customer service was excellent as well. Everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. The atmosphere is great whether you're grabbing a casual meal, meeting up with friends, or having a date night. They also offer lunch specials, which looked like a great value, but we were in the mood for soup this time. The portions were generous, and everything was reasonably priced. We're definitely coming back because those sweet garlic chicken wings are calling our names! I can't wait to return and bring the rest of my family to try this place too. Highly recommend!

They make you feel like you've done something wrong just by asking questions about the menu. The lunch portions are actually quite scant and leave you hungry. There aren't many restaurants that make me actually not want to go back because of how uncomfortable I feel while in that restaurant or how they treat their patrons. This is actually one of those restaurants that I wouldn't care if I ever went back to. I gave them three stars because their food is passable and because I feel sorry for the servers that have to work there.

I mixed the chili flake into the drunken noodles and start to eat. After about 5 bites a hear a large crunch and feel a large amount of pain coming from my lower left rear molar. I instantly spit out the bite I was chewing and go through the my half chewed food to find out what caused the issue. After some poking around I started to find big hard shards of transparent material and small shards of hard white material. The transparent shards I bit into were clearly glass and the white material were chunks of my tooth. My mouth was bleeding and in pain and I could feel my lower rear left molar had a large chunk missing. This place is really fucked up for letting glass into their food. It was clear they broke some glass around the chili flake oil or around one of the ingredients that makes up the drunken noodles and instead of throwing away everything that could have potentially had glass in it, they tried to salvage some of that contaminated food and serve it to their customers. This was my first and last time eating at this place. What really pisses me off more about this whole situation is that my wife and I are currently introducing various solid foods to our 1 year old daughter and we both gave our daughter noodles from our dishes. It really makes my blood boil that this restaurants cheap and lazy owner and employees would let this type of shit slide and make it other people's problem just to save a few dollars from product loss. Now I have to take a day off work to go to the dentist and get my tooth fixed or if the tooth is past repairable I'll have to go through the process of getting it removed and replaced with some artificial tooth. It sucks that all of that will end up coming out of my pocket. I would suggest everyone to stay away from place. This type of shit happening is never worth the risk from a place that disregards their quality control like this. There are plenty of other great Thai and Asian restaurants in the area that I have gone too over and over again without one issue. I hope this review helps others avoid the same bullshit this restaurant is currently putting me through. Also incase any other customers found glass in their food, I purchased my order around 8pm on April 22nd 2026.

So the 1st time I ordered in February, the food came lopsided like they had it tilted in the bag but okay no problem since it wasn't something that contained any liquids so I didn't mind. It was actually pretty good. We got the beef drunken noodles (which was what was lopsided in the container), sticky rice, papaya salad, and beef salad (which spilled a little but not too much). They were smart enough to bag the papaya salad up in a bag and put inside the container. I also requested the papaya salad be Lao style and they didn't charge me for that. Fast forward to recently 2-3 weeks ago I ordered again and man this time I was pissed! Ordered spring rolls, papaya salad, drunken noodles, and Thai fried rice. I also ordered the papaya salad Lao style again which this time they added a charge to my order for when they didn't the other time. Also whichever idiot packed the papaya salad that is filled with not only a bunch of liquid but a bunch of fermented juices like PADEK and NAM PLA! Did not put it in a bag and just put it in an open container. That genius also put that container on the top of everything and tried to fit all 4 stupid containers in 1 bag so the papaya salad that was on top of everything spilled all inside the bag. Not only that but it leaked everywhere I'm sure in the driver's car as well. It leaked on my front door and all the way until I ran with the bag to my sink. Learn how to pack or stop being cheap and get some decent containers for the stuff that needs special attention! Everything was drenched in PADEK and dripped all over my floor! Good thing it wasn't real Lao style being dark and funky. I hate to give such a low rating because their food is actually pretty good. But man, get it together!

I gave 3 stars because of lack of acknowledgement when coming in , no clear instructions that I had to order on the digital screen. No service for a place that I thought was a sit down restaurant. I suggest this place for to go only orders
